well olimar(with pikmin)has already been a character so since some characters already have some sub clones like for mario(dr. mario),fox(falco),and link(young/toon link)so why not something like louie or a pikmin,maybe even an enemy from pikmin,being a dieheart pikmin fan i would really like to see something like that.what do you think?

I find it highly unlikely that that there will ever be a need for a character beside Olimar to make it into any future Smash Bros. games (I guess it could happen if they really mess up the third installment in the series?)

I would like to see another Pikmin character. Maybe one like Pokemon Trainer, where you can switch them around.

The problem with this is that unlike Pokemon, Pikmin don't have enough individual traits to be stand alone characters, even as part of a cycling team. Pokemon have been shown to live on their own (in the wild) in the games because of the variety of traits and moves they possess, while Pikmin are barely capable of sustaining themselves without the leadership of a commander (Olimar). That's why I don't think it makes any sense to add a new Pikmin character.

Don't take this as me hating on Pikmin by the way; it's certainly one of my favorite Nintendo franchises and I love the fact that they added Olimar to Brawl. On the other hand, it's also one of the easiest franchises to represent with just one character (or technically, one character controlling the five Pikmin types), so I just can't as of this time see the need for another Pikmin character (again, barring some new face from the upcoming third installment).

who's to say there will be new types. and if there is, louie would still be a full clone. his attacks may have slighty different effects but they would still be the same attacks. in melee, roy's attacks were flaming/explosive but he was still a marth clone.

All his aerials are different(excluding Uair), throws are different, smashes and tilts behave differently. He has different gravity, and his projectiles bear a substantial difference to Link's...

Lucas is not even close to Ness. They do not have a single attack that's the same...Closest is PK Fire and PK Thunder, but the radical differences in them really makes them completely separate moves.

On topic, I think Jyarra is correct. There's no need for another Pikmin character when it can be represented by one character easily. Adding another character would simply take away from Olimar's originality.
